BEIJING (AP) A Chinese court has sentenced to death a rapist who posed as a female on social networks to lure 16 girls to meet him, a state news agency reported Thursday.
Wang Yong, 40, was sentenced earlier this month for raping the girls aged 12 to 16 starting in 2009, the official Xinhua News Agency said. He was arrested in September 2012.
Xinhua said Wang was unemployed and posed as a female on online social networks to befriend schoolgirls and convince them to meet him. He raped the girls in hotels.
The Intermediate Peoples Court in Wuhu city in eastern Chinas Anhui province also sentenced Wangs accomplice, a 16-year-old girl who said she had been coerced by him, to three years imprisonment. She brought younger girls whose trust she had gained to the hotels.

(20,630 posts)In terms of the sentence being equivalent to the crime--
the castration, like the rape, should be a slow process done without anesthesia...
in which case, death may be preferred.

(2,083 posts)Many decades ago, rapists were put in the electric chair or hanged.
And most of the accused were black men.
You want to return to those "good old days?"
I would like to initiate good new days based on DNA evidence.
I would give them two options:
1. Turn big rocks into little rocks for the rest their natural lives.
Or
2. Execution
